But global warming should have a number of additional indicators, predicted by modeling or other […]

Much of the added heat, an effect of human generated greenhouse gas pollution, goes into the upper 2,000 meters or so of the ocean. But we use the surface measurements to track global warming because we have the data for a long […]

The upper oceans are warming, the sea surface temperatures are elevated, the air in the lower Troposphere, where we live, is […]

At medium scales of time, the surface temperature does a good job […]
